In this stunning conclusion to the Raven's Trade duology that began with The Gilded Crown, Hellevir's bargains with Death to save the ones she loves--including the princess she risked everything to bring back to life--may just lead to the ultimate sacrifice. Hellevir's gift to raise the dead once thrust her into the center of a court filled with backstabbing and treason, where she became duty bound to protect Princess Sullivain, the sole heir to the kingdom's throne and target of many rivals eager for the crown. But the more Hellevir risked to keep Sullivain alive, and the more deeply she fell in love with the princess, the greater the cost became--for Hellevir's power can only be granted by the strange figure who rules the afterlife, and there is always a price to pay. Now Hellevir may have risked too much, and Sullivain has become obsessed with consolidating power to vanquish her foes once and for all--by whatever means necessary. Cast out to the fringes of a country on the verge of civil war, Hellevir is torn between protecting her heart or giving what little she has left to finish what she started. Yet, her connection with Sullivain runs deeper than the mortal world, and saving her friends and family might mean risking the woman she is still bound to by soul and blood. To stop a war, Hellevir must unravel the last of Death's riddles and decide, once and for all, who deserves to live, what a life is worth, and whether she can pay the price. This explosive finale to the Raven's Trade duology is sure to satisfy fans of dark fantasy and queer romance.
